NIST Special Publication 800-53, Revision 5 (SP 800-53 Rev. 5), provides security and privacy controls for federal information systems and organizations. The identification and authentication (IA) control family focuses on establishing mechanisms to identify and authenticate users, devices, and entities accessing the system.
Each control within the identification and authentication control family has specific requirements and objectives. These controls address aspects such as user identification, password management, multi-factor authentication, device identification, cryptographic mechanisms, remote access, session management, and more. They are designed to ensure that only authorized individuals and systems can access the information system, while also protecting the integrity and confidentiality of sensitive data.
